Abstract: Technology progress in the field of learning has evolved especially with the use of e-learning and now with the emergence of a new concept called m-learning due to mobile technologies which are probably the most influential technology for teaching and learning in the next decade. Internet access remains inaccessible to most of our students. But almost all students have access to mobile technology. In this initiative, the students are encouraged to use their phones to send questions to their teachers, see the platform, add notes etc. Nevertheless, the m-learning has some constraints in the use of mobile technologies such as the size of the screen which is too small for reading, battery life that is in constant progress but still low for e-learning applications, user interfaces that are not user-friendly on most mobile phones and diversity of mobile devices and the rapidly changing trends suggest producing “LMS mobiles” adaptable to a wide range of mobiles. To avoid redundancy in the reproduction of content that exists in the e-learning environment, we combined in this approach the use of mobile platform in the e-learning (m-Moodle) to offer to our students the opportunity to be mobile and use the mobile as the medium of information. In this study, the benefits of mobile-learning and its use in the INTTIC’s Moodle platform are presented. A new way to send information to different learners is developed, relying on the multimedia podcasting technology. This latter is still relatively new and not widely known.
